The man that took this picture was shaking....I felt so bad for him, we couldn't bare to ask him to take another....
We got to go on our first vacation with Kaleb this last weekend and loved every minute of it! Ian, Julia, and Kate joined us along with Brian's cousin Kacy and her husband Eli. We rented some cabins out at Lake Murray in Oklahoma and the whole experience could not have been more perfect. We took the boat and the four wheelers to have an eventful weekend and let me just start with our boating experience......I can basically wakeboard!!! I got out of the water my second try and now I just have to figure out what to do when I get up! Just for some background, I have never skied so this was something new for me...I loved it! I can not wait to go back out again :) This was also Kaleb's first time on the boat and he did perfect.....he actually fell asleep sitting up on me when his dad was wakeboarding. There was not a peep out of him and his cousin Kate loved it too! We could have not asked for better babies to take with us. Julia even tried the water sports and did awesome....it was so much fun!

The next day we took out the four wheelers and that was an experience in itself. We all had a great time and everyone took turns with the kids so we all got to participate...THANK YOU TO ALL! Brian and I just got a new Polaris 4X4 Sportsman that was bought specifically to get "stuck in the mud" and boy did he....
Brian, Kacy, and the boys went out while Julia and the babies and I went to make lunch and I came back to the scene above!!! Brian went to go into a mud hole and it was EXTREMELY deep...he said he had no idea that it was up to his waist!!! Long story short the new four wheeler is currently out of order....but at least they had fun!!! He said it took a couple of strangers and Ian to get it out...
Other than that everyone had a blast. That night we cooked out and stayed up for 4 hours just talking around the camp fire just enjoying everyone's company. Oh and I loved Oklahoma!!! They weather was perfect EVERYDAY....We woke up and walked in the mornings when it was 70 degrees and there was a perfect breeze the whole time. And the lake was beautiful....it was turquoise and you could see your feet while in the water- BIG change from Lake Pat Cleburne if you have ever been there!
It was the best-every minute of it....can't wait to go back :) I'll post more pics later once I get to my computer....
